Origin
The Aglaonema 'Lichee Red' is a plant species originating from tropical and subtropical Asia, specifically the forests of Thailand. This plant belongs to the family of Araceae, or aroids. Due to their origin, Aglaonemas are accustomed to a warm, humid and shadowy climate.

Characteristics
The Aglaonema 'Lichee Red' is particularly known for its vibrant red and green leaves, which give the plant a striking appearance. The plant grows in a shrub-like manner, its leaves directly sprouting from the ground. It is a relatively slow grower. This variety typically reaches a maximum height of about 2 feet indoors, but can also grow larger under the right conditions.

Care
The care of the Aglaonema 'Lichee Red' requires a specific approach. Because this plant originally comes from a humid climate, it is essential to ensure adequate regular watering.

The plant prefers semi-shadows, but can also tolerate bright, indirect sunlight.
